The regioselective catalytic hydrogenation of benzo [b]thiophene (BT) and quinoline (Q) were carried out in a biphasic (water/decalin) medium using two ruthenium(II) complexes as catalyst precursors. These water soluble complexes were of the type RuHCl(TPPTS) 2 (L) 2 , (where L = 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroq
